Re: Watling Blue Seal Confections bandit - Jackpot

Hi Canuck, yes it resets, alternative jackpot doors, the other side is spring loaded and that works. The problem is there's nothing on the reel mechanism that will activate it when a jackpot is achieved - hope that makes sense.

Watling Blue Seal Confections bandit - Jackpot

Hi, I'm looking for a bit of guidance on a Watling Blue Seal Confections jackpot. The problem is it doesn't work properly, it doesn't reset itself after a jackpot win. Ive included pictures of the jackpot, maybe its missing some parts?? Also does anyone have a Watling service manual they may want to...

Watling Blue Seal one arm bandit with mint vendor

Looking for a bit of information on the Wailing Blue Seal Confections one arm bandit that Ive just purchased. All looks to be ok except for the mechanism to operate the mint vendor. Does anyone have a diagram of the mint vendor mechanism so I can see how it would work?

Re: Jennings Sun Chief unknown lever?

Hi Paul, thanks for the reply. I think it's missing a spring somewhere because it doesn't seem to reset itself. Any idea where the spring was located?

Jennings Sun Chief unknown lever?

Can anybody tell me the function of this lever in my Jennings Sun Chief? It never moves or seems to do anything.

Also, I've noticed, when a coin is inserted, it will allow 2 goes on the machine and other times only one?

Are the two questions connected??

Bleached Jennings Chinese front lenses

Topic moved & merged - Site Admin.

Hi.
Can anyone give me some guidance on how to bring the colour back to the lenses? I've cleaned them with warm water, but the bleach markings have not gone away. Can they be sprayed and then lacquered to protect them?

Re: Bryans Gapwin Project

This is the Gapwin I had. Hope this helps. Good luck on the chrome plating as it is now very expensive, the one I used in Manchester has now stopped re chroming as many have seemed to do.
